Fracture - Book One of the Glass Galaxy Trilogy
Book one of the Glass Galaxy Trilogy Almost a century ago the very stars disappeared, leaving space a black void for three long hours, and when they returned, they weren't the same. The galaxy had changed. Old constellations were gone, well-known planets nowhere to be found, and new inter-galactic nations replaced the old. Only a single star system didn't change. Kalani, a now ex-naval officer, has been wandering this new and unfamiliar galaxy for most of his life, searching endlessly for both his fiancé and the solar system they called home, but he has found nothing, and he grows more disheartened with each passing day. He has nothing but himself, his ship, and his companion AI in a galaxy that grows ever more dangerous, and if he doesn't adapt soon, then he will fall prey to the harsh circumstances that have overthrown his life. It's a good thing, then, that he will do anything to find his long-lost love.Complete
Humanity is a virus
The first world is the key ____________________________ This tells the tale of two men who live at a point in time where the galaxy has been colonized and people are running out of new places to live. Governments have ignored this problem for eons, pressing forward while the people suffer behind them. Many desolate worlds exist that cannot support life, but the technology exists to terraform them in a short amount of time. The increasing demand for new planets is insatiable, however, and barely habitable worlds are being colonized despite the incredible risk. The men search these worlds in the hopes that they might find one where life exists such that its example could be used to save the whole galaxy from its many ecological crises, bringing a balance between progress and long-term survival. Instead they come across the worst case scenario- a worldwide environmental collapse. Their story begins here.Complete

Marauder - Circuit breaker
America, near future. The alien 'Harvesters' occupy Earth, controlling major cities while suburbs descend into lawlessness. The occupation happened within days of the ships' arrival, leading to the collapse of government and military command. Mike Reeves, 34, a former electrical engineer at a mid-sized tech company, has an average build and looks. Living in suburban Phoenix when the invasion happened, he has no military background and is an ordinary guy who enjoys tinkering with electronics, homebrewing, and camping. His garage contains a workshop, tools, components, and many unfinished projects. The aliens didn't come to destroy humanity. They came for something much more unsettling: they came for us. But some humans started changing in ways no one expected-not turning into aliens, not staying completely human, but transforming into something entirely new. This is the story of a man forced to adapt beyond recognition while fighting to retain his humanity. Ordinary people face impossible choices, discovering that survival sometimes requires becoming what they never thought possible. Marauder: Circuit Breaker isn't about technology or invasion-it's about consciousness-what defines us, how much we can change while remaining ourselves, and what happens when evolution defies plans. The circuit has been broken. Something new is about to emerge.Complete
